Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Matthew Yorra moved all in for slightly more than 1,000,000 on the button. David Stearns took one look at his cards in the big blind, and made the call.

Matthew Yorra: A♠4♦ All in
David Stearns: Q♣Q♠

"I got an ace!" announced Yorra, looking to pair it in order to crack Stearns' queens. The 5♣J♣K♠8♠7♥ runout didn't help him to do so, as Stearns recorded yet another elimination.

On other tables, Farzad Bonyadi bust at the hands of Ablahad Salim, and Scott Ruegsegger lost a massive flip at the hands of Bruce Diamond to go from second in chips, as he was at the start of the day, to last.

Jacob Wilson

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Scott Ruegsegger and Bruce Diamond both got all of their chips into the middle preflop, from under the gun and middle position respectively. It was Diamond who was at risk and needing to hold.

Bruce Diamond: A♦8♣ All in
Scott Ruegsegger: K♠Q♥

The 9♠J♠9♥ flop have Ruegsegger four extra outs to the straight, but he went on to lose his pair outs as the A♠ turn hit the table. Diamond only needed to fade a ten, and he did so as the brick 2♣ river allowed the dealer to count out his chips, and hand Ruegsegger's over.

Larry Quang opened in the cutoff, before Joseph Tellez moved all in from the big blind. Quang snap-called.

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Manfred Wolf opened to 400,000 from the cutoff. Buck Bucceri then opted to put in a three-bet from the small blind, choosing 1,200,000 as his sizing.

Keith Romer was in the big blind, and he took quite some time to come to a decision. After a little while, he announced "all in," covering both players with chips in the middle. Wolf folded quickly, but Bucceri took a bit more time. Eventually, he let go of J♠J♣ face up, and Romer took down the pot uncontested to take the chip lead.
